Chapter 56 A Gift From Bradley
Cameron spoke with steady conviction. There was no way she’d let her family control her like they did in her past life. Cutting ties with them wasn’t a question for her–it was just a matter of time.
Since they called her today, she might as well make everything clear with them and save herself the trouble of ever hearing from them again.
Martin roared with a livid look, “You think you can just walk away? Dream on it, Caron. We raised you for 18 damn years, and now you wanna cut us off without paying us back? You ungrateful brat.”
Cameron let out a light laugh and retorted, “Paying you back? Oh, I already did.”
In her last life, she paid with her life. Whatever debt they thought she owed for being raised was cleared the moment she
died.
Heidi shrieked, “When the hell did you ever pay us back?”
Now that her mask was off, Heidi didn’t even bother pretending to be the loving mother anymore. She showed her true face without hesitation.
Cameron snapped, “Heidi, if I hadn’t spent the last 18 years disguising myself as a man, would you still live in a damn villa? Would Milena have gotten into Langford Academy?
“Would Martin soak up all that praise and attention? Please think about it. I’ve paid everything back over the past 18 years.”
Martin ground his teeth and shot back, “That’s what you’re supposed to do.”
Cameron sneered, “Well, starting today, I’m done being so stupid.”
Milena’s voice trembled, almost crying. “Cam, how can you talk to Mom and Dad like that? No matter what, they gave birth to you and raised you.”
Martin cut her off. “Millie, don’t waste your breath. She wants out? It won’t be that easy.”
Heidi echoed, “Yeah, not that easy.”
Cameron let out a cold chuckle and retorted, “Oh? Not easy? What if I go public with the fact you made me live as a boy for eighteen years? Take a guess–whose side do you think the public will take?”
Knowing Cameron was right, Heidi had nothing to say. She just snapped, “You heartless, unfilial brat. You will be cursed.”
Cameron’s voice was calm. “Well then, expect to hear from my lawyer.”
With that, she hung up. She didn’t want to waste time arguing with idiots. She wasn’t about to let herself stoop to their level and turn into one of them.
She blocked all three of them, for fear that they’d call her again. She was going to find herself a good lawyer and make the
break clean.
Cameron spent the weekend on campus. By Sunday afternoon, students started to return for self–study in the evening.
Cameron decided to swing by the library for some books. She already had most of the school curriculum down cold, and she wanted to dive into other topics to broaden her knowledge. She had already read a ton, but still, she was eager to read
more.
She opened her dorm room door, only to bump straight into someone.
The guy was wearing an off–white trench coat over a crisp white shirt. A pair of wire–frame glasses sat neatly on his handsome face, giving him a clean, elegant, and effortlessly mature vibe.
“Hi, Brad.” Cameron greeted him.
Bradley looked a little surprised to see Cameron, and he said with a smile, “Hey, you came back earlier than I thought.”
“Yeah,” Cameron answered without offering much else. She then stepped aside to go out.
“Hold on,” Bradley called after her.
Cameron paused her steps and asked, “Yeah?”
With a faint smile, Bradley said, “Got a little sor
